Saratoga Springs is very nice but a little too big! We are staying in the Paddock section and just walke to DTD but it was like a 2 mile walk!

I think I stayed in Congress Park (I think that's what it's called) a few years ago. And is it really a 2 mile walk? Didn't think it was that long

The distance from the Paddock Pool (middle of Paddock section) to the DTD Marketplace entry is .63 mile following the walking paths. It's a shorter distance than walking from Epcot main entrance to France pavilion.

Factor in the 5 times we got lost and it's two miles!

I'll never stay at STS again not worth the money or the DVC points. It's too big and it doesn't even have it's own ice cream! Even the value resorts have their own ice cream!!

Personally I think the Contemporary (actually Bay Lake Towers) is one of the best hotels on property but hey to each their own

Also I concur STS isn't worth the points

Monorail!!! Made the annoucement no monorail past 10:00 PM even though EC has extra magic hours! The extreme cheapness begins!

Cali Grill for dinner!! My favorite!!!!

But first exploring Poly and GF!

Have to agree with you, Cali Grill is
The best, the staff is so nice, but the best part is watching Wishes from a window seat while enjoying desert.

I have to disagree with you about this. Staying at the Contemporary a couple of weeks ago, I was concerned about this also, but found it really was a non-issue (then again I never dealt with the monorail shut down as I never stayed for EMH at night) I think it's to give the monorail more downtime, even though it also is a cost cutting measure at the same time. My first reason is why I agree with cutting late EMH as it just gives the rides less downtime.

Although I will say the Epcot line should be open a little longer since the park closes at 9 most of the time

A lot of refurb work going on in Suess Landing.

For such a great attraction they didn't think the queue out for FB! It's a disaster no one knows where to go!

Was doing Poseidon's Fury for the first time and was loving it. We were about to open the round door in the second room when Team Member came on the loud speaker like it was an emergency and said we had to exit!

:CrySmile: I was into it I wanted to see the ending!

Good thing they are doing so much repainting in Suess Landing most of it is very faded!

There are now tarps going up the sides of the buildings of the second floor of Canada! I got pics!!

I'm traumatized walking to make some fake iced coffee because the only place in freaking Orlando that has real iced coffee is Sunshine terrace in AL !!

Any way walking along and I see a little frog and I said cool a Frog! Two seconds layer a big gray bird runs and gobbles him up:CrySmile:

Anyway off to MK!
